Re: [Avid-L2] Multi-Cam freezing

Yes. DNX 36 will sacrifice quality. It's an offline codec.

When your done editing, relink your final sequence to the DNX 175 material
for mastering (where, you won't need to play 7 simultaneous streams
anymore).

trying out 7 streams of DVCProHD 720p60 (plus two PCM audio streams) and it
is working fine so far on an internal eSata drive in my old 2006 Mac Pro
